US GI Watch Cap

Earlier on this kind of a super thick, soft, and warm wool cap was bought just before winter and it ended up in the cupboard after the season was over. Nowadays one has to be prepared for anything because you never know when the weather gives you a nice frosty surprise. Made in the USA according to strict military specifications.

Features

The US military sure has awesome knit watch caps! These are made from thick 100% wool and their height is perfect for folding. Unlike your usual military wool clothing, these aren’t made from that coarse cheese grater fiber suited for peeling and rough sex games. Instead they are surprisingly soft. Of course if you want the softest headwear, buy a merino watch cap.

These are available in many colors but there’s only one size. However, the ribbed knit fits virtually any head, even the copywriter’s 60 cm (23.6") noggin. The height is excellent for turning it into a double-layer cap. So, it is very warm.

This is genuine US Government-issue gear made according to the specifications of the DoD, but these ones were never distributed to anyone. If you want to dig a bit more, the NSN number is 8405-01-006-1074.
